"What are the chances of success?" Gongsun Chan shook his head and said calmly: "To be honest, I don't know. How so? After all, it has only been nearly two years since my Gongsun Zan joined the New Han Dynasty, and he did not personally participate in the decision-making or discussion of some strategic decisions of the New Han Dynasty. Since my Gongsun Zan joined the New Han Dynasty, he has been leading the army to participate in the conquest of Yuan Shao. When I came to Liaodong this time, I suddenly received a military order to wave my army north from Yecheng, Jizhou. To be honest, my Gongsun Zhan has no bottom in his heart, but, since the establishment of the New Han Dynasty and the New Han Army, when did you decide that the battle you want to fight will be lost? Which time, the final victory did not belong to the New Han Army? Who would have thought in advance that the New Han Army would expedition to the desert in the most severe winter that is rare in a century? Who would have thought that the New Han Army would be victorious in the end? In the end, they succeeded in eliminating the Huns who had plagued our Han for thousands of years? Therefore, I think that what chance we have of winning is not something we should consider, but we should think more about how we should obey the orders of the court of the New Han Dynasty and do what we should do well. Guys, are you right? ”

After Gongsun Chan finished speaking, he said to Gongsun Du with a cautious expression: "There is one point, everyone can rest assured." That is Taifu Liu Yi, who will never do something that he is not sure of, and will never fight the kind of attrition war that kills one thousand enemies and loses eight hundred. Knowing that the current Wuhuan army has more than one million, but let us attack it, there will definitely be some reasons that we don't know yet, I believe that Taifu Liu Yi must have a plan and a certainty, so he will let us do this. So, Brother Shengji. You don't have to worry too much, my Gongsun Chan dares to vouch for it. The incorporation of your military horses in Liaodong is by no means to let you go to your death. The first thing we should consider in the process of cracking down on the Wuhuan alien race is to preserve our own problems as much as possible. ”

The reason why Gongsun Du asked Gongsun Zhan what was the chance of winning this attack on the Wuhuan clan was indeed a little worried about his Liaodong soldiers. After all, this time he surrendered to the New Han Dynasty, and he was more or less forced to surrender under the circumstances of helplessness, not that he took the initiative to take refuge. Even, before Gongsun Du. I never thought that I would surrender to the New Han Dynasty. At this time, he had just surrendered, and immediately accepted the incorporation of Gongsun Zhan, and was about to go on an expedition, which made him have to think about the lives of his soldiers, considering whether it would be the New Han Dynasty that deliberately let his military horses go to be cannon fodder to die.

Well, such a situation. In fact, there are many examples, often, newly surrendered military horses, will be sent to the front. Let it be the vanguard. Of course, under normal circumstances, everyone will be mentally prepared. As it should be. But now they have to face it. It is an unprecedented army, judging from the strength of the army alone. More soldiers and horses than any other war in history. As far as the Wuhuan army is concerned, there are more than one million men and horses, this is not a joke, once the battle, one careless, their 100,000 troops and horses, will be wiped out, which will be an unbearable sacrifice loss for the children of Liaodong.

Therefore, Gongsun Du was worried in his heart, and wanted to ask a little more clearly, about touching the stone with an egg, knowing that he would definitely die, he would never do it.

After all, Gongsun Chan was also a prince, and he understood Gongsun Du's worries, so he gave him a careful explanation, so that Gongsun Du could rest assured.

Gongsun Zhan finally said: "I told you before, this time, we are only cooperating with the actions of the Xinhan Army in Shanhaiguan, not letting our army directly attack the assembly area of the Wuhuan tribe. Based on our current situation, it is unrealistic to directly attack people's assembly camps. Therefore, our goal is to strike at the alien tribes in the west and north of Liaodong as much as possible. Purge the foreign tribes in the east, west, and north of our Liao, and completely bring these areas under the rule and control of our new Han Dynasty. Someone will definitely send instructions on how to do it in the future. ”

"Uh, that, General Gongsun Zhan, I still have a question, the meaning of purification and thoroughness, is it that as long as it is a foreign tribe outside the Guan, whether they are Wuhuan or other foreign races, will they not let it go?" One of the generals asked, a little incomprehensibly, "In addition, are we going to destroy the soldiers of the alien race, or is it all the people of the alien race?" ”

"Forehead ......" Gongsun Zhan scratched his head, but he didn't think about this problem, because he had not participated in the affairs of the New Han Army's attack on aliens. During this time, he had been attacking Yuan Shao, and he did not pay too much attention to the New Han Dynasty's rule of the Northwest Desert. Therefore, it was really difficult for him to explain this clearly for a while.

"Well, don't be in a hurry to discuss this, after we have reorganized the 100,000 cavalry army, we will explain it to you clearly, and we will tell you what to do." Gongsun Chan pressed the question for the time being and did not answer.

Gongsun Zhan knew that he didn't know very well, but Shi Ah would definitely know that when the time came, let Shi Ah explain to them how his military horses would treat those alien tribes outside the Guan. Of course, if it is according to his own heart, it is absolutely exterminating. But he also knew that the current New Han Dynasty could never be the same as his previous inner thoughts. This had to be understood before he dared to give an order.

Gongsun Zhan didn't say anything more, and asked Gongsun Du's generals to prepare for the reorganization first, and just wait for Shi A's three thousand white horses to come back, and then start the formal reorganization.

Two days later, the cavalry of Gongsun Du of Liaodong had been reorganized into four armies with a total of 100,000 horses.

At this time, Gongsun Kang had been escorted to Shanhaiguan by Shi A's two junior disciples with hundreds of people.

Xi Zhicai, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun and others saw Shi A's junior brother escorting Gongsun Kang over, and after asking, they were all overjoyed. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zhan left Shanhaiguan and went to Liaodong, and it only took four or five days to subdue Gongsun Du and return Liaodong to the territory of the New Han Dynasty. This is a good thing, a great thing, at least, the New Han Army can rest assured that it will go out of the pass to attack the Wuhuan Clan, and there is no need to worry about Liaodong Gongsun Du dragging the New Han Army back.

In the past few days, Shanhaiguan has already made preparations for marching. Just wait for Gongsun Zan to send an envoy to Liaodong, and now, the army can officially leave the customs.

As a matter of fact. This time, I went out and took the initiative to attack. For the time being, it is unlikely that it will attack the Wuhuan tribe at once, and the Wuhuan army gathering place where the Wuhuan king is located.

To know. The outside of the border is too vast.

Leo had already drawn a map of the world based on the satellite map stored in the solar phone. Of course, Liu Yi spread another panic here, saying that the so-called old fairy he met when he was a child had described the general shape of the current world to him, and he had described it from memory.

For some of the place names marked on the map, Liu Yi did not dare to mark them, let alone write them according to the names of later generations, but asked through guò to figure out this world. It was only after what those places were called that he dared to mark the names of the places in this life.

For outside the gates, there are not many places marked by Lew. However, in recent years, some merchants from the New Han Dynasty who traveled outside the customs and soldiers from the mountains and forests who were sent out to explore the terrain outside the customs have marked the locations of some places outside the customs and filled in the map.

These maps, the terrain may be different from the real terrain now, after all. The satellite maps of later generations have been separated from the present by more than 1,200 years, and many terrains and landforms have undergone great changes.

But. Overall, the difference is not too big.

The generals of the New Han Army and above, as well as some strategists and military divisions. It is common for everyone to hold an accurate map of the world for posterity.

Now, according to the calculations on the map. From Shanhaiguan. Arrived in Liaoyang, about 800 miles. This is naturally a straight-line distance. In essence, it may be a little further away. And from Shanhaiguan, arrive at Chifeng Mountain, the assembly place of the Wuhuan army. It should be about six hundred miles. From Liaoyang to Chifeng Mountain, there are also seven or eight miles.

In other words, whether it is from Shanhaiguan or Liaoyang, it is not too easy to attack the assembly place of the Wuhuan army.

Therefore, when the New Han Army went out of the customs, it only took Shanhaiguan as the center, radiating to the west and north outside the pass, purging the Wuhuan tribes in this area to the direction of Chifeng Mountain, and eliminating the advance army and scout spies sent by Bundun. Control zhì alien people in these areas. Then, build a forward base one by one. That is, it began to establish a network of strongholds outside the Guan, and to achieve actual rule and control over the areas outside the Guan. Prepare for expeditions to the plains and forests outside the Kansai region.

Therefore, when Zhao Yun, Gao Shun and other generals led the army out of the customs, Xi Zhicai also sent a group of people composed of a large number of civilian officials to Liaoyang at the same time, and began to take over the Liaoyang regime, and assisted Gongsun Zan to establish a government yamen around Liaoyang City and radiate around, so as to form an effective control over the local aliens. At the same time, he also gave Gongsun Chan instructions to clear the analysis, explaining how Gongsun Chan was going to purge the alien races outside the Guan.

Specifically, it was naturally the instructions sent by Liu Yi from Luoyang.

The order is very clear that the New Han Army must completely gain substantial control over the alien races outside the Guanwai, any alien tribes. Any foreign tribe that is hostile and aggressive to the New Han Army, and is unwilling to submit to the rule of the New Han Dynasty, can act cheaply and give a resolute and destructive blow......

In addition, there are many detailed terms and conditions. Anyway, under the premise of ensuring the integrity of the New Han Army itself, it will take the action of accepting and subjugating the alien races outside the Guan.

In other words, to put it more plainly, that is to face the alien race outside the Guan, whether it is the Wuhuan clan or other alien races. Where the New Han Army passed, if they did not completely surrender to the New Han Dynasty, then there was only one word, kill! Especially for some alien races that have always treated the Han people cruelly, they will be exterminated regardless of men, women, old and young. The specific example, such as the one killed in Shuofang back then, is suspected to be the tribe of the Capricorn tribe. Its tribes eat people, and the tribes that regard the Han people as food, these human races that have no humanity at all, will be wiped out quickly.

This can be clearly known when it comes to attacking their tribe through guò. Often, those foreign tribes, they will take the Han people as slaves, and usually, they will abuse the Han people for pleasure, and they will not treat the Han people as human beings at all. Among these foreign tribes, if there are Han slaves, most of them will not be a good thing.

Zhao Yun and Gao Shun and other generals of the New Han Army naturally received clear instructions. Two generals, they came out of two different places. Among them, Zhao Yun led his headquarters cavalry and sent troops directly from Shanhaiguan, while Gao Shun would go out from Daijun.

Let's talk about Zhao Yun, the military horses he led include the 100,000 cavalry troops under Gongsun Zhan. A total of 200,000 cavalry troops came out of the pass. Of course, the total strength is naturally not only these 200,000 military horses. There were also 200,000 infantry troops. Will then go out of the customs, these 200,000 infantry troops. They will be responsible for transporting food, and then stationed in the places where Zhao Yun collected the alien settlements, and build a stronghold with official functions, and so on.

Zhao Yun's 200,000 cavalry troops, and many troops, all the way, advanced north along the coast of Bohai until they reached Liaoyang and the military horses of Liaodong. Only one army is enough for this road of military horses. After all, going north along the Bohai Sea, almost all of them are plains. In these hundreds of miles of area, there are no real foreign tribes. In fact, these areas can be regarded as the western Liaoning Plain, and settlements have long been formed in these areas, referring to the settlements of Han people and people of different races. Individual places have formed town bazaars, some. There is already a city. The alien people living on the plains of western Liaoning, they are strict with their sinicization, and their way of life is basically similar to that of the Han people. Peacetime. The alien races outside the Guan, when they ransacked, the aliens living on the Liaoxi Plain. It is also the object of predation of those aliens.

So, for the Liaoxi Plain. Zhao Yun just sent an army, this army and horses. It was just in response to the situation that the two junior disciples of Shi Ah sent back by Gongsun Zhan were aware of all the way when they went to Liaoyang, and sent men and horses to purge those Wuhuan scattered on the Liaoxi Plain. As long as you eliminate the Wuhuan rangers who are wandering on the Liaoxi Plain, and then strengthen the control of the Liaoxi Plain, then you can rule the people on the Liaoxi Plain well.

Then, an army of more than 100,000 cavalry will go deep into the mountains and forests of the western Liaoxi Plain to the northwest to sweep this area. Of course, it was also divided into several routes of military horses into the mountain.

In the endless forest, Zhao Yun's more than 100,000 military horses entered, in fact, it was not much, and it could even be said that it was quite small.

It is really not easy for cavalry to march in the forest, and it is really not easy to find the aliens and tribes hiding in these forests.

However, it is necessary to eliminate the aliens in this forest, to build passes on some of the mountain roads that the aliens must pass, and to have de facto domination over these areas. Otherwise, the New Han Dynasty would never talk about tranquility.

To tell the truth, the aliens living in this large forest, their hateful and hateful Cheng dù is not inferior to the Huns back then, and even more hateful.

How do you say this? At that time, the Wuhuan people were excluded and oppressed by the Huns and it was difficult to survive in the northwest desert, so they had to migrate to the northeast. Of course, it also benefited from the protection and support of the Han Dynasty. If they did not submit to the Han Dynasty, then the Wuhuan people would have been wiped out by the Huns or other foreign races.

In the past, the government agencies set up in the places where people of different races lived were called the Protectorate, and the officials of the government were responsible for dealing with ethnic issues such as disputes between people of different races, and guiding them to live together in peace.

Unfortunately, it is obvious that for now, the Han court's plan to govern the alien race was a complete failure. Thanks to the protection of the Han court, most of the Wuhuan people lived near and outside the Great Wall at the beginning, learning the civilization of the Han people.

However, from the very beginning, the Wuhuan people were uneasy and kind. Their wolf nature, which is deep in their bones, has not changed at all. All along, they have been learning from the Han people while doing those things like chickens and dogs. When the Han was strong, they came secretly. When the Han was weak, they openly broke into the Han to plunder.

However, they will also be weak-minded. They were worried that the Han would not be able to resist doing something to them, so they generally did not lightly put their tribes within the jurisdiction of the Han government, nor would they lightly expose their tribal settlements.

Of course, among the Wuhuan people, there are naturally many people who are dedicated to goodness, who are truly willing to learn from the civilization of the Han people, and who are willing to create their own wealth with their own hands. This part of the Wuhuan people, they will move to the areas under the jurisdiction of the Han government, such as the Wuhuan people on the Liaoxi Plain, most of them are this kind of Wuhuan people who sincerely accept the Han civilization and are willing to sinicize.

In addition, there are others, who do not want to get involved in some strife, and who are quite obsessed with the traditions of their tribes, they will migrate farther into the steppes and farther into the Far East.

Therefore, those who are hiding on the border of the Great Han. The grassland forests and the alien tribes hiding outside the Great Wall on the border and in the mountains can be said to be the vast majority of them are some extremely vicious alien people. Often, as soon as they have the opportunity, they will come out, break into the pass, plunder on a large scale, and leave after grabbing.

Therefore, the treatment of aliens within a radius of hundreds of miles outside the Great Wall must be completely eliminated and a substantial control over them must be formed.

Zhao Yunqin led a cavalry army into the mountain, and then separated, dividing the forest in the mountain into an area to search, searching for the alien tribes hiding in the mountains and forests.

In fact, in the area of thirty or forty miles outside the Great Wall, there are almost no people who really exist in the form of tribes, and these aliens should be some aliens between good and evil, but the composition is very complicated. (To be continued......)
